Unpopular Opinions Meme!

Give me a fandom and I'll tell you three unpopular opinions about it. If you give me a show/book/movie/etc that I'm not fannishly active about, I'll give you three things I dislike about the media in question instead. 

I Am Not Ready For Autumn

When I walked out of work today (at the oh so advanced hour of 2:30 pm) the shadows were already starting to grow long and the air had a distinctive, autumnal lack of warmth. I am not thrilled about this. Especially given that in two weeks, I'll set back the clocks, so it will get dark even earlier.

On a completely different note, Reba has a new song out, called "Turn On The Radio."

Now, I'm not a big country fan, but I have a fondness for Reba, and this is a catchy tune, but why the hell does every single country artist ever need to write a song that's all 'dear ex: suck it, I'm famous now, bet you're regretting not treating me better now, huh? Vengefully yours, country singer.'

Don't any of them start writing and then go 'wait a minute, I've heard this song a billion times' and then scrap it?

Apparently not.

Love Is Not A Contract

I think I may need to stop listening to femmeslash radio.

I was listening to them talk about Ivy/Rachel and I had to delete the program off my iPod out of rage.

Look, I know it's frustrating when an author is being a total cocktease about a pairing, and frankly, I sympathize.

What I don't sympathize with or agree with and actually find rather morally abhorrent is the idea that Rachel is somehow obligated to be in a relationship with Ivy because Ivy loves her a ridiculous amount.

No.

Being in love with someone doesn't obligate them to love you back.

Besides which, why is no one mentioning that while Ivy is bisexual, Rachel has said over and over and over that she's straight?

Call me crazy, but there is this little think I like to do called "respecting other people's sexual identity" where I don't assume that I know better than they do which gender they prefer.
